That is also my understanding. Ranking an option equal to NOTA means
that it will have no effect on the majority requirements, only other
people's votes will have an effect on the majority requirements for that
option.
In the vote results you'll see that the majority calculation uses
185/61 for option 2. That means 185 people voted option 2 above NOTA,
61 below NOTA. Since there were 258 people who voted it means
258-185-61=12 voted option 2 equal to NOTA.
